Symptoms of failed #1024 fix

[Jens Seidel]

Hi,

you performed a #1024 bug and can no longer access to modem? You get in
/var/log/frameworkd.log:

2009.11.01 17:25:06.733 ogsmd.modem.abstract ERROR    could not open channel MISC, retrying in 2 seconds
2009.11.01 17:25:06.743 ogsmd.modems.ti_calypso INFO     Requesting new channel from 'fso-abyss'
2009.11.01 17:26:08.523 ogsmd.modem.abstract ERROR    could not open channel UNSOL, retrying in 2 seconds

2009.11.01 17:26:21.743 ogsmd.modems.ti_calypso INFO     Requesting new channel from 'fso-abyss'

This happened to me too on every boot of SHR. I just want to confirm that
these symptoms mean that the soldering was not properly done so that no
capacitor is used instead of the 10uF or 22uF one. I will ask the engineer
who  performed this task for me to do it again to get a proper phone.

I also want to mention that I did not observed other problems. The device
boots fine, the touchscreen and USB works, ... GPS failed for me but maybe I
did not properly plugged the antenna.

Some programs such as Cellhunter stop now with:
An exit code of 1 was returned from /usr/bin/cellhunter.py

So even if the capacitor cannot properly solded again I have a fine
device :-)

Hi !

I have the same error while I'm on roaming but I haven't done the 1024 fix so I'm not sure it's related ...

There was at least a further Google hit on the messages above with relation
to a #1024 bugfix and I just tried to confirm it.

I get no prompt for the SIM pin which worked in the past and also mickeyterm
exits with a DBus exception before I can enter a single command. As the
engineer told me he isn't sure about the soldering I assumed it wasn't done
well ...

dmesg outputs:
[ 1068.535000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1081.725000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1094.915000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1108.110000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1121.340000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1134.540000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1147.740000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1160.935000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1174.125000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1187.310000] modem wakeup interrupt
[ 1200.510000] modem wakeup interrupt

On the other hand I did most tests (except the initial ones) with a disassembled
device (without GSM and GPS antenna, no WLAN module and battery) ...

If it works again after the resoldering I will drop a mail.

Resoldering was performed and now all modem related problems vanished. Also
my device is now #1024 bug free :-))

Don't know about the increase of battery time as I nearly always have it
connected to USB but maybe it's time to unplug it ...
